Gaia Dance Temple

"This place is known for its famous Estatic dance sessions every SUNDAY. Getting to Gaia is a straightforward journey, whether you're starting from San Marcos, San Pedro, or Panajachel. From San Marcos: Begin your adventure by spotting a TukTuk displaying a "Tzununa" sign, typically found within the vicinity. Keep in mind that TukTuks departing from San Marcos might be slightly pricier than those originating from Tzununa. Once onboard, communicate your destination to the TukTuk driver, ideally in Spanish. Remember to discuss the fare upfront, usually around 15q per person, though negotiating to 10q per person for a group is possible. To exude confidence, refrain from inquiring about the price. If one driver isn't willing, rest assured, another will be readily available. The ride itself takes approximately 15 minutes, leading you to the entrance of Gaia. From San Pedro or Panajachel: For those coming from San Pedro or Panajachel, kickstart your journey by taking a boat ride to Tzununa. Anticipate a fare ranging from 15-20q. Upon docking, secure a TukTuk ride, with a fee of 5-10q, informing the driver of your destination – Gaia. They'll transport you directly to your desired spot. As you conclude your Gaia experience and prepare for the return journey: • If you're headed back to San Marcos, be on the lookout for local TukTuks. They'll be available, typically charging around 25q during the evening. • For those journeying back to Panajachel or San Pedro, consider either securing a TukTuk in San Marcos or exploring the option of a private boat, which can be arranged through a reservation, best initiated via a direct message on Instagram."

"Gaia hosts the famous weekly ecstatic dances. It's a bit out of San Marcos, but you can grab a tuktuk over there easily. This is a staple event!"
